Writing is like singing...

For me, writing is like singing because I am good at it, but I am too intimidated by what other people will think to show the public. Both my singing and writing have been criticized in the past, which made me more hesitant to show people. Recently, I received an F on my Business Administration essay and ever since then I have been worried about my writing skills. Thankfully, my essays in English were given really good grades, which makes me feel a lot more confident about my writing. Now, I am planning on writing a blog over summer about the toxicity in make-up because I feel that my writing is developed enough to show others. Similarly, when I was little, my dad criticized my singing once and ever since then I have been scared to sing in front of other people. My boyfriend dared me to sing a few songs at Open Mic Night, so I did it and to my surprise, I got a lot of very positive feedback. Now, I plan on performing at every Open Mic Night because it is something I enjoy doing and I feel much more confident about it now.
